Potato cutlets for dinner!

Yes! You heard right! That is what I had for dinner tonight. Had a craving for the yummy potato cutlets (aloo tikki) that I ate as a child almost every week when I was residing in Kanpur, U.P
So I made those and threw them into a gravy (few of the cutlets reached the inside of my tummy well before they made it to the gravy, of course!!)

Aloo Tikki in gravy and chapatis!

Mash 3 boiled potatoes, 2 bread slices, a tsp of amchur powder, 1 tsp chilli sauce, 1 tsp Maggi sweet and hot sauce, 1 tsp jeera powder, salt to taste.

Shape into patties and shallow fry on a dosa pan.

Gravy

Grind 2 onions to a fine paste along with 5-6 cloves of garlic and and 1/2 inch piece of ginger. Heat a pan with oil and add shah jeera, cumin seeds and add this paste and fry till it turns brown. Now add 5-6 tomatoes and 3 green chillies ground to a paste to this and fry till the tomatoes are cooked. Add a tsp of kasuri methi and a little sprinkling of garam masala powder amd salt to taste and 1/2 cup of water and cover and cook till the water reduces by half. 

Now add the patties to this gravy and cook on simmer for 2 mins more. That's it!
